something...............
Quantum mechanics
Cooling process
Forming the Universe
Time and Space
Chaos and order
AT> Firstly living in a infinite universe or finite
universe sets the precedence on what we can actually
do with the rest of humankind...and our extropian
endeavours
We should try to resolve whether the universe is
either one or the other first,....but it's
interesting to see that there was a beginning /
broken symmetry in spacetime....

ball didn't just come about,....and I'd like to

'transitional' forms....

Computers, then
Nanotechnology, then
Space travel/living, then
The "information entity" us
